I took this shot this morning,while we had a nice blue sky with just a whisp of cloud.Its very warm today and it feels like summer is finally here.
I tried to capture these flowers from a low angle to get only the sky as the background and laid on my side to do so!
ISO 200
USM in PS
Cloned out a dark fence post that was just showing in the bottom of the shot and ran the final pic through neatimage.

Well worth the effort of laying down on your side to take this. I love the translucence of the petals against that beautiful blue sky. The colours are very complimentary, and it is a great composition. Well done.

A wonderful shot Andy, the perspective really does it justice, and the purple flowers contrasting the blue sky, just perfect.
Yep, this is clear proof that summer is on the way, we are just moving into winter - so enjoy;-)
Well seen and captured.

A beautiful shot, Andy. Very clever choice of a low point, giving a totally new view of a common subject. It's amazing to see how this simple flower can become attractive on this image. Perhaps a tighter crop could also work...
